The Saturdays singer Una Foden was at home with her baby daughter Aoife this weekend while her husband Ben hit it hard at V Festival.

The hunky rugby player and his team mates from Northampton Saints were showered with attention backstage at Chelmsford yesterday and spent all afternoon playing table tennis and chatting to scantily-clad promo models nearby at a Wheyhey ice-cream tent.

And Ben made no secret that the lads were set for a wild weekend at the festival, posting on Twitter: "Only had to wait 12 months for it to come round again! But Vfest is here! @VMLouderLounge are you ready for us?? Gonna be bigger than ever!"

He later tweeted a photograph of the rugby lads with the caption: "If you see this lot today at Vfest, run for the hills! #shiftinggears #boysontour #VMLouderLounge."

And it appears they immediately got stuck into the free booze and made sure it was a weekend to remember.

A source said: "They were all being quite rowdy and didn't waste any time sidling over to the Wheyey ice-cream tent where a bevvy of scantily-clad promo models, dressed in itsy bitsy tight white shorts and plunging white leotards were working.

"One of them even got down and did press ups to try and impress everyone and they were clearly out to have a good time.

"Ben was flirting with a brunette in the Lounder Lounge area who touched his bum and he was shaking it at her as a joke.

"He then started chatting to a blonde girl 15 minutes later who was wearing a pink Wheyhey ice-cream jumper before going to watch Justin Timberlake perform his headline slot."

Meanwhile, Una and the couple's daughter Aoife Belle were back home spending quality time together and the singer posted a sweet photograph on Instagram of the toddler after plaiting her hair.

Update: It looks as though Ben's fun at V Festival has come to an end as he's heading back home to see his wife Una and little girl, not to mention a yummy roast dinner.
